The highest profile recent case that I can find is Rambler vs Igor Sysoev on the development of Nginx.

Although in this particular case, I tend to agree with Igor as he was employed as a system administrator not a software developer so it's unlikely that there were any real contractual constraints imposed on him in relation to copyright or invention transfer.
